Description
A stunning cake that brings the comforting flavors of cinnamon rolls to your dessert table, perfect for any gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar (for filling)
- ¼ cup ground cinnamon
- ½ cup whipping cream (or sour cream/Greek yogurt)
- ½ cup milk of choice
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
- 2–3 tablespoons cream or milk (for icing)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (for icing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a bundt pan well to ensure your beautiful cake releases easily.
- Prepare the cinnamon sugar filling by mixing the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Set it aside for later.
- Cream together the room-temperature butter and 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar until it becomes fluffy and light.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Whisk together the flour and baking powder in another bowl. Gradually mix this dry ingredient mix into the wet ingredients, alternating with the whipping cream and milk.
- Pour half of the batter into the bundt pan, then sprinkle half of the cinnamon mixture on top. Add the remaining batter to the pan and finish with the rest of the cinnamon sugar filling.
- Bake for about 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely before icing.
- Mix the powdered sugar with the cream (or milk) and ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract until you get a smooth consistency. Drizzle this over the cooled cake, and you’re done!
Notes
For added flavor, serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or fresh fruit. Store in an airtight container or freeze for extended freshness.
